Development studio Spiders, the company behind 2016’s The Technomancer and 2014’s Bound by Flame, has announced their next project is an RPG called Greedfall.
The game is inspired by Baroque art from 17th Century Europe, featuring a distinctive visual style described as “grandiose sceneries and environments in warm, muted colours, and dark undertones”. Players will explore a remote island seeping with magic, riches and lost secrets. The island is home to locals who are at odds with invading settlers, which will no doubt play a pivotal role in the story. Players can also expect to encounter mercenaries and treasure hunters during their travels.
Spiders is promising the game will give players freedom to achieve objectives, such having the option to use combat, diplomacy, deception or stealth. Your actions will also influence the course of the story and relationship between factions on the island.
Greedfall will be released on the PS4, PC and Xbox One in 2018. We have embedded the reveal trailer below.
